I’ve built quite a few Hope wheelsets lately. Here’s another set with my favorite brand of mountain rims — Stan’s. Shipped with Stan’s tape and valve stems installed. Just add tires and grins!

  • Say what you will about west coast clouds, they cast an even light on the road and that lets you ride (descend especially) faster. #yyjbike
  • RT @bikeasana: Here’s the guy & wife who not only honked at us at a red light, but also threatened to run us over. Way to go bud! #yycbike…
  • The "bike infrastructure" parts of Cedar Hill Rd start and stop variously. Needs continuity now and fixes to suit 8… https://t.co/mv90vHgXHB

  • Today on the bench. Silver spokes on mountain bikes are pretty cool — no matter they're all dirt brown before long. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #wheelfanatyk #hopetech #hopepro4 #sapim #sapimdlight #sapimrace #stansnotubes #stansarchmk3 #hautewheelbuilding
  • Taking photos to go with the blog I just posted. May be of minor interest to builders who plot wheel tension (site linked in profile, then pick blog from the nav menu). . . . . #doyouevenplotbro #basketoftensiometers #canwelinkyetinstagram #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #wheelfanatyk #parktool #tensiometer #workbench

  • Customer brought me a NOS Crest rim. Could be the last one of these I'll ever build. Soft spot in my ❤️ for these rims and, unscientifically, it seems people who ride them are all about fun. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #stansnotubes #stanscrest #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #wheelfanatyk
  • Boost spacing + asymmetric rims = 💪. Totally would, especially for 1464g. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #dtswiss #dt240s #lightbicycle #carbonrims #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #workbench
  • I don't think you have to be a pro to build carbon (but if you can be a pro, do that). Use a tensiometer and you're good. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #lightbicycle #tubular #carbonrims #dtswiss #dt350 #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #wheelfanatyk
